Comments about Fujifilm FinePix J250 Digital Camera (Black):
I use this as an everyday camera. I don't do anything specific, but it's a great camera all around. Having a 5x optical zoom is always nice because the pictures stay sharp even from far away. The main reason I got the camera from B&H was they're great pricing. Even with the two year protection plan, it was still $20 cheaper than at [...]. It is relatively compact, but still boasts a much higher quality photo than the typical "sleek and slim" camera. It's a great deal. Get it...go ahead, it's only a couple of clicks away...

Comments about Fujifilm FinePix J250 Digital Camera (Black):
The Fujifilm FinePix J250 handled as expected from a camera in the price range. The pictures at times can be noisy and with the flash, images can be over exposed. The camera however possesses all the measure of quality expected from Fujifilm. The lens is decent for the price, the camera focuses rapidly, but the lag time between pictures is long. The colors are accurate, not oversaturated, not undersaturated. Don't expect Canon quality however. This is budget camera and as well, a point and shoot without the new Fujifilm EXR CCD processor.

Comments about Fujifilm FinePix J250 Digital Camera (Black):
It took about a month to decide to keep this camera. I had some questions about the noisiness of the photos even ones taken in the day time. Overall I have enjoyed it. I like that there is an auto select option as far as the different pictures you might take, landscape, portrait, etc.. I'm not sure if i like that I'm not able to adjust the ISO level it seems to be set always on Auto. The wide angle and zoom options are cool. The display is huge and thats cool, but it looks a bit jagged.
It's size is nice its light but not so light and I like that.
I like the timer on here thats one thing I was pleasantly surprised about. When the timer is set the camera will continuously refocus to the point it's set to.
I use this for leisure though so I'm not too frustrated by some of the limitations. It's a good camera for casual point and shoot pictures

Bought this from B & H. [...] This is a great camera. I bought it to take pictures while hiking in the mountains. It's light weight and has good battery life. It's well made and easy to use. Lense is high quaility and that were they put there money. It doesn't have a hugh number of extras - which I don't use anyway. This is my second FinePix product. First one still works great but I gave it to girlfriend so I could buy an even better one.

Comments about Fujifilm FinePix J250 Digital Camera (Black):
After having kodak for years, this is such an improvement. Got it in time for vacation, spent a week at the beach and took 570+ photos. I mainly use the SR auto and it adjusts for the best pic. I love the continuous pics, as I got the birds diving and dolphins swimming. I'm sure there is more this camera can do but I have only had it about 2 weeks. Also, love the trimming on the camera, better than do it on the computer. Pictures came out clear. No complaints so far.
